Trigonometry
Trigonometry is a polyamorous love story about a cash strapped London couple who open their small apartment to a third person. Somehow, the new addition makes the flat seem bigger, not smaller. Gradually, many things become easier, nicer, better with an extra pair of hands. Directed by feature film Director/Producer Athina Rachel Tsangari and BAFTA nominated breakthrough Brit Stella Corradi, the duo created an intimate world full of subtlety and beauty in every frame.

Grace and Frankie
Grace and Frankie follows the story of Grace Hanson (played by Jane Fonda) and Frankie Bergstein (Lily Tomlin), two unlikely friends who are brought together after their husbands announce they are in love with each other and plan to marry. With older women being underrepresented in Hollywood, the series is groundbreaking, depicting women in their 70s living full lives, drinking, dealing with grief, and having sex.

Mrs. America
Mrs. America tells the true story of the movement to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment, and the unexpected backlash led by a conservative woman named Phyllis Schlafly, played by Cate Blanchett. Through the eyes of the women of that era — both Schlafly and second-wave feminists Gloria Steinem, Betty Friedan, Shirley Chisholm, Bella Abzug and Jill Ruckelshaus — the series explores how one of the toughest battlegrounds in the culture wars of the ’70s helped give rise to the Moral Majority and forever shifted our political landscape.

The Breadwinner
The Breadwinner is an inspiring animated adaption of Deborah Ellis’ acclaimed young-adult novel about Paravana, a young girl in Afghanistan who steps up – by disguising herself as a boy – to provide for her family after the Taliban raids her home and arrests her father. For Technicolor Toronto, it was an opportunity to tell an important story working with Director Nora Twomey of Irish animation studio Cartoon Saloon, and Toronto’s Aircraft Pictures. In addition to its success at the Toronto International Film Festival, The Breadwinner was the Grand Prize Winner at the inaugural Animation Is Film Festival at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, where it also took home the Audience Award. Executive producer Angelina Jolie introduced the film for its U.S. premiere, calling it “exquisitely done and very important.”
